Justin Johnson tweet Jeremie Frimpong message or cryptic Hamilton Accies exit hint?

Justin Johnson last night appeared to hint he is set to leave Hamilton Accies with a cryptic post on Twitter.

The Dutch winger was left out of the squad that lost 2-0 to Celtic last night and shortly before kick-off he posted to his Twitter account: "When one door closes, another one opens."

This post was quickly deleted and some fans have speculated it could be in relation to his cousin Jeremie Frimpong sealing an £11.5m move to Bayer Leverkusen from Celtic, whom he did tweet about earlier in the day with a retweet of Leverkusen's official announcement.

However, with the post disappearing, most Accies fans are speculating that his time is up at New Douglas Park after limited opportunities.

Accies boss Brian Rice refused to confirm or deny whether Johnston would still be at the club after the transfer window closes on Monday.

Asked if Johnston was heading for the exit, he told Lanarkshire Live Sport: "Not at this minute in time.

"There might be one or two leaving and there might be one or two coming in, but there's nobody leaving at this minute in time.

"That might change before the window."

Johnson, who had a spell at Dundee United a few years ago, has made seven appearances for the Lanarkshire side this season, with his last outing on December 23 in a 2-0 defeat to Livingston.
